timing is the key u have to click at the right moment.

  1. First pre-focus on the object where splash is going to be
  2. take some photos for practice after 4 or 5 clicks you will get to know your camera
  3. practice makes a man perfect and you are a man so get to know your camera
  4. after focusing it tell your friend to drop the ball
  5. now don't look into the camera look at the ball with your fingure on the camera button
  6. just when ball is about to touch the surface you click the picture
